Bhatt praises Randeep's work in 'Jannat 2'

Emraan Hashmi and Esha Gupta may be the lead pair of "Jannat 2", but Randeep Hooda's performance has left the Bhatts - Mahesh and Pooja - very impressed.

"Watched #Jannat 2. Gripping. Assured. Authentic. Emraan's BEST performance to date. But the film would not be the same without Randeep Hooda," tweeted Pooja.

The movie, which will release May 4, had its first screening here Thursday.

"#Jannat 2: Thank you Randeep! Our film would not have soared to this emotional peak without your incredible performance," posted Mahesh Bhatt, the producer of the film, directed by Kunal Deshmukh.
